The workflow for the rest of this building is very similar to the plan conditions. We've
duplicated the South, North, and West elevations, cropping the views down to only the
keeper's quarters. As you step through each of these views, you'll need to create families

measure and re-create the exterior walls. In the elevations, you'll need to create the doors,
windows, and roof conditions (Figure 21.17).
